THE COAL PANIC.

The Chicago coal dealers are making
extraordinary efforts to convince their
customers that they are not responsible
for the recent rise in the price of coal,
but with all their explanations fail to
make it clear why they added an addi-
tional p cents to the ton in anticipation
of the New York shippers doing the
same thing. The Chicago coal con-
sumers have an idea that the % cents
advance should have been delayed at
least until the New York shippers ill.,
augurated an advance movement,
which they have not yet done. A lead
ing Chicago coal dealer told the Tribune
reporter that the prospective coal
famine in the Northwest was not the re-
suit of scarcity of the product
itself, but arises from the fact that the
facilities for bringing it from the pits
are suddenly found to be inadequate.
1t is explained that the lake facilities
have been greatly reduced by the use
of vessels in the revived iron trade, and
railroad men say there is at present a
shortage of cars on accounted the rush
to get all kinds of freight through before
the rise in freight rates that is to 90
into effect the latter part of this week.
Despite all these explanations there is a
firm and well settled opinion in the pub
lie mind that the coal panic is the
result of combination among the coal
operators. From present appearances
the only show for bursting the combina-
ton is an open winter-an event which
weather prophets are figuring out,

Special to the Globe.
+ SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 2.-Of all the
sensational developments in the ultra
sensational case of Sharon VS.. Sharon
for divorce and alimony, that made pub
lie Saturday is the most startling. The
case is now before the statessupreme
court ON appeal by the defendant,
through his son and executor,
from the decision of the lower
court granting the divorce and ali
mony, and is to be submitted
on briefs. In that filed Sept. SO by ID.
S. Terry, counsel for the fair plaintiff,
who is now Mrs. ID. S. Terry, it is al
legged that the late ex-senator William
Sharon, who was the original defendant,
sent signed check with the amount left
balnk by one of his attarneys, while the
case was pending. to Judge Sullivan,
before whom the case was tried. SharOn's
counsel were then Gen. W. III. L. Barnes
eX-Judge o. P. Evans, II. j. Kowalsky
and ex-senator William Stewart. The
wording in the charge points to Evans
as the man accused of having acted as
bride carrier. The situation attracts a
large share of public and private atten-
ton and has created considerable eX-
element, as it may lead to fatal en-

Sullivan and demanded to know if he
was the authority for Terry's allegation,
but Judge Sullivan refused to make any
statement at present, but said he
would do so at the proper
time. Later he wrote letter to Evans,
stating that the charge against Evans is
false. The denial of Judge Sullivan
that such offer was made and Judge
Evans denial that he ever made such
an offer places Terry in the position
of a wanton sslanderer. Terry bears
the reputation of being a truthful man
and he is also known to be dangerous
man to cross as was proven in years
gone by in his duel with Broderick, In
which the latter was killed. Further
developments are anxiously awaited.

STREET CAR PANIC.
Several Persons Injured on a Gin
cinnati Cable Road,

CINCINNATI, Oct. 2.-This evening a
strand came loose in the cable of the
Walnut Hill cable road and wrapped
around the grip of a car coming west on
Sixth street. The car, which was
full of passengers, could not be
freed, and rushing on, overlook
another car which had stopped
at the crossing. This car it pushed
along. Brakes were set hard on both,
but without effect. The cars rushed on
in the darkness, sparks grinding from
the wheels, passengers screaming and
hundreds of excited people following
the cars, shouting. Dashing onward
thea runaway cars soon struck
horse car at the crossing of
Fifth and Sycamore, throwing
it into deep ditch. At
the same time the runaway cars were
also ditched, giving such violent
wrench to the cable that four other
cable cars on their way up to Walnut
Hill were derailed. The shock was
greatest to these cars When the result
of the affair was summed up it was
found that thirty or forty people were
badly bruised. Louis Kolb is probably
hurt, but the others will be around to-
morrow. it is thought.

The annual national convention of
the Knights of Labor, which assemblies
IN Minneapolis to-day, will be by far
the most important meeting of labor
representatives that has ever been held
i'll this country. Fortunately for the Or
ganiZation there is no internal diSSen-
sion such aS threatened the Richmond
convention on its assembly a year ago,
and which had been occaSiOned by the
differences of opinion among the leaders
as to the wiSeSt methods for dealing
with the great strike on the Southwest
ern railroads. The representatives of
the labor interest in all parts of this
vast country vi. come together to-day
in the utmost harmony and with the
wise purpose in view of promoting
the welfare of the powerful
organization whose interests are COM
united to their custody. The conven-
ton is not likely to be divided into fac
tons, nor its proceedings married by
partisan bitterness.
On the contrary, the delegates will re-
aliZe that the labor organization has
reached a crisis when the Wisest coun-
sells must prevail, and that it can only
be by harmonious and united action that
the organization can successfully over
ride the obstacles which circumstances
have combined to throw in its pathway.
The HENRY GEORGE movement in pol
1tlcS and the result of the anarchists
trial in Chicago have contributed to
force the labor organizations into a con-

responsibility of committing the labor

Sr the anarchists and inyeigh denun-
citation upon the courts that sentenced
them. Whether or not it shall be wisest
for the Minneapolis convention to make
authoritative declaration respecting
these matters or to utterly ignore them
is one of the important questions to en-
gage its most serious attention. Every
good citizen has reason to hope that a
wise conclusion will be reached, for
every good citizen must have the inter-
eStS of the laboring classes at heart.
On behalf of its constituency, the
GLOBE extends cordial greeting to the
representatives of the sons of toll who
assemble in convention in Minneapolis
to-day, and bids them welcome to the
Inequalities of one of the fairest cities
Ofthis great Northwest. And we fur
thermore indulge the wish that their
action may rebound to the good of
the worthy organization whose law
givers they are, and that the entire ma
ton may be blessed by the result of
their deliberations.

THE SUMMER SHOWER.

As on fair face. bright as skies OF May.
Dark frowns may gather at a thoughtless
word;
So swift the heavens on this summer day
With angry clouds by careless winds are
blurred.
AS loving smiles in laughter wreathed, give
To grieving, quivering lips, or taunting
sheer;
So tossing shadows all the sunshine chase
With threatening humors of the skies
austere.
AS eyes that glow with hope are drowned in
tears
And some are changed to walls of dark
So all the blue of summer disappears.
And Earring thunders echo through the
air.
And now it rains; great sheets of moisture
pour
In melting torrents from the angry cloud :.
While the grim batteries of thunder roar
And shake the frightened earth with echoes
loud.
And am seven miles away from home:
Lost; with summer suit on: no umbrel
Muddy; afraid of thunder: drenched; this
pome
Shall hide some things 1 do neg dare to

CHICAGO ENCAMPMENT.
Soldiers Going to That City From

CHICAGO, Oct. At was a gay and
crowded scene at the military encamp-
ment grounds to-day. On all sides
could be seen waving banners, mounted
high on flag poles, gayly caprisoned
horses, ridden by good'looking, i'm
portant-appearing high-booted soldiers,
VINO never seemed to be quite
through with the business on hand.
Big-mOuthed cannon stared from be-
meath their coverings of heavy canvas.
while:a small, puny-lo0king artillery
man stood guard over his monster
charge. The club house, which has
been given over to the officers of the va
riOuS companies and regiments, wears a
holiday appearance, and its halls re-
sound with the tread of martial steps.
Sentries pace up and down on all sides
OF their encampment and challenge all
curious intruderS who could not show
credentials from the adjutant general.
The HaymakerS, rifle team of Oak
land, Md, occupy a prominent place
nl the encampment. This is the crack
organization of the kind in the United
States. The Haymakeas number four
officers, twenty men and band of
twenty pieces. The boys have shot
in 113 matches and have
never yet been beaten. The for
eign troops arrived at the Sher-
man house at IL o'clock. The local
societies of their respective nationalities
were well represented and gave the
visitors a hearty welcome. A banquet
will be given to the visiting consulS at
the Sherman house tomorrow evening,
after which they will visit the encamp-
ment upon the succeeding day. The
committee has arranged for a
monster reception to the visiting
seldiery on Tuesday evening at the
arm0ry of Battery D. On this occasion
all the scandinavian singing societies in
Chicago, about 800 members in all, will
be present, and addresses will be deliv-
cred by John A. Emander, of the Swed-

There said the drummer, while his
eyes danced with demoniac glee, sis the

black trunk of ordinary size. "A

unaSSuming he looks as he stands there
with all the repoSe that marks the caste

voice rose to mild creScendo.
The reporter obeyed, but all his
strength was insufficient to move the
avenger so much as a hairs breadth,
and his careSSeS revealed the fact that
the innocent looking trunk was in real
ity built of solid cast iron.
''Oh, he's John Sullivan. He's solid

way on purpose" chuckled the traveller.
ssYou see," he went on in an explana-
tory way, 1--WE commercial travellers

to no purpose. Our sample cases and

in ruins after trip over that road be-

On his way to Minneapolis. An effort
was made to interview him, but he posi-
lively refused to talk OH any ques-
lions OF general public inter-
est. The Chicago delegates left
for Minneapolis this afternoon.
L. j. Morgan and l.. S. Oliver said to-
day that they had heard nothing definite
about the rumor that fifty-three local
assemblies had been suspended by order
OF the general executive board, but were
inclined to believe that POwderiy was
capable of doing anything in order to
increase the number of his enemies.
William Hollister said: 1.-The con-
vention will do well if it fires

SO far that he never could get back
That fellow on several occasions nOti-
fed the local assemblies of their rein
statement, although he never let them
know when they were suspended. He
has done so to my knowledge with three
local assemblies belonging. to District
Assembly 81. The knights had no
management at all during the
last year and this accounts for
the numerous signs of demoraliza-
ton. The convention will be bitter
struggle from beginning to end-the
anti-POwderly element being repre-
sented by their able leaders. One of
the most interesting will be a debate on
Socialism, which Joe Labadie,
of Detroit, will bring up.
He will demand an explanation from
General Master Workman Powderly
why he. who for years was member in
good standing of the socialistic labor
party, has gone back on his socialistic
principles. Labadie, before leaving
Detroit, armed himself with documents
and papers which he claims prove
Powderly, not very long ago, was man
of pronounced socialistic tendencies.

Tuesday and said he had had the big
gest trade he ever struck. John is one
of those happy fellows who knows how
to dress to the queens taste, and always
wears his Prince Albert coat buttoned
up tightly about his Apollo Belvidere
ShapesSO that none of his fine points
will escape the eye of lovers of the
sack in his left hand and a gold-headed
cane in the right. John walks up the
principal street of town with grace
full glide that suggests nothing If not
the poetry of motion. He is an enthuSi-
aStic tobogganer, and takes an active
part in carnival sports during the Win
ter. 1t is rumored that he has flannel
tOboggan suit that he puts on when the
carnival opens, and wears 1t day and night
until the show is over. He says it is
great deal warmer than night shirt,
and during the day when worn unuer
citizens clothes it fills his form out anu
makes him look like an athiete. AT
Brainerd last winter. john went out on
the toboggan slide one night 10 nave
some fun. and the first trip down he
made connection with all amateur to-
bogganer who was walking up the slide
dragging his toboggan, and 1t took the
citizens of Brainerd half an hour to
sort the fragments out and put them
together in such shape that John could
be recognized, but he got there just the
same and lived to tell the story in all its
horrible details. The only reminiscenee
of the event that he preserved is a slight
limp in his walk, which is only per-
ceptible on damp days and when there
are no ladies in sight.

The complexion Of the Chicago delega-

Charles Zeib, Robert Nelson and John
Mahoney. The first three are ultra
socialists, and Zeib has in his
possession set of resolutions
condoling the crime of the anarchists
and demanding Communication of their
sentence. These resolutions will be
sprung upon the convention at the
eleventh hour. Master Workman
Quinn, of New York Assembly 40, has
been enlisted in support of the Zeib-
Schilling-Nelson resolution.
